Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution

Evolution crashes every time I'm trying to launch it without even showing a window. When run from command line the following lines are printed into terminal:

user@computer:~$ evolution --component=mail

CalDAV Eplugin starting up ...

Sebastien,
the bug is marked as duplicate, but do I understand correctly that it isn't fixed so far? So what should I do now? Should I wait for the next version to be released or what?
Thanks for your help,
Gleb

I have the same problem. This happen if Time Zone set to "Europe/Moscow", if you switch Time Zone to different, for example "Europe/Kiev" and run Evolution - everything works fine.
When you complete Evolution startup wizard - you can change Time Zone back to "Europe/Moscow".

I updated the evolution package to the latest version and the problem went away.
